1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

2 · The registry

The trial behind it

Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

purpose of the reviewHyperactivity of sympathetic nervous system (SNS) plays a role in the development of arterial hypertension and heart failure, two co-morbidities frequently associated with type 2 diabetes (T2DM). This review aims at analyzing the effects of sodium-glucose cotransporter type 2 inhibitors (SGLT2is) on blood pressure and more especially on SNS activity in patients with T2DM. RECENT

findingsBy enhancing glucosuria, natriuresis, and osmotic diuresis, SGLT2is improve glucose control, promote weight loss, lower arterial blood pressure, and reduce the risk of major cardiovascular events and hospitalization for heart failure. No rise of heart rate is detected despite reductions in blood pressure and plasma volume, which may suggest a dampening of SNS activity. Indeed, increasing experimental and clinical data demonstrated a reduction in SNS activity, including in key target organs such as the heart and the kidneys. Of potential major interest, a better understanding of the mechanisms linking SGLT2 and SNS deserves further investigation.
